SCARBOROUGH, Maine, April 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Reacting to
increased interest from both retail and e-commerce CBD and hemp businesses, OrganicPaymentGateways.com has just announced that it will
provide a free, expedited CBD merchant account consultation and placement
service for any legal CBD website owner based in the US. Business owners who
suddenly find themselves without payment processing due to being shut down by
Square, Stripe, or PayPal can reach out for priority placement.
On their CBD, nutritional supplement, and telemedicine-focused payment
processing website, OrganicPaymentGateways.com, they detail the necessary steps
a CBD retail store or website owner must consider if they have had their
payment processing declined or suspended and find themselves in a position
where they need to make fast decisions to save their cashflow.
Even in 2024, few American payment gateways or merchant account providers
are willing to provide CBD business owners with a reliable, affordable way to
process credit cards.
Square, which is a very large, highly rated payment services provider, has
worked with CBD owners over the years – but many business owners now find
themselves no longer able to work with Square for numerous reasons – sometimes
due to specific products being against Square's terms and conditions.
Online message boards and social media accounts are buzzing with desperate
retail store and website owners looking for affordable, stable alternatives to
Square for their CBD payment processing needs. Some business owners have
thousands of dollars in marketing and inventory committed but no way to accept
payments.
According to Organic Payment Gateways, they have implemented a pre-screen
and new account intake program that will allow them to recommend a credit card
processing solution that best fits each legal CBD seller's business. For retail
establishments they offer simple, reliable desktop terminals, and for website
owners they have a hands on integration team that will work with business
owners – one-on-one – to integrate their payment processing with most major
website builders and shopping carts – including Shopify, WooCommerce,
BigCommerce and even Wix.
Even in this stressful environment, the Organic Payment Gateways team is
committed to a personalized, efficient approach that considers the exact
products, CoA's, and marketing methods of each CBD business they work with to
reduce the risk of surprises down the road.
CBD site owners who utilize Organic Payment Gateways' "Square Payment
Processing Alternatives for CBD" placement program will need to answer
some basic questions, such as exactly what products they will be selling, how
long they were processing credit cards, and their refund and quality assurance
policies. Additionally, CBD business owners will need to document their prior
processing sales volume, as that impacts which processor is the best fit.
According to Organic Payment Gateways, there are a host of reliable CBD
payment processors that can be a good fit, but choosing the best solution
depends on many factors, such as time in business, product line, and sales
volume. Organic Payment Gateways will gather all preliminary information and
then act as a consultant, assisting with the application process and website
integration.
The Organic Payment Gateway website explains that their service is provided
without a direct cost to CBD site owners, potentially a significant benefit for
those who are concerned with cash flow due to a recent merchant account
disruption or shake-up. According to Organic Payment Gateways, the processors
compensate them in exchange for screening and introducing qualified CBD site
owners.
